Chi$lmas in Brevard *?? I?8 ually .Hrtjoyable from all viewpoints. Houses in the city report Bit excetitwnaHy good trade, in most, in stances", surpassing that of the -pre vious jiear. Families in dire need were;far l<fca sthan reported last y*ar, and altogether H happy feeling was evident-i onj every' side.- ' - \t, Uptown business nenses ail report increased sales, not only in volunje' of tonnage arid supplies sold, but in ac tual csitt (transactions.' This, with the very nominal pricea . prevailing in Brovard is; an indication of the 'fact ' that there lis less hoarding in the county,' i - ;V Welfare 'workers report a far less number of people applying for aid at the Christmas season than last year. While a number y>i baskets of Christ mas goodies were distributed by in terested people pf the town, and a goodly number applied for the ne cessities of life, such as staple foods, clothing and fuel to the welfare association, workers and' interested people were enthusiastic in thfir r? port of the; lesser degree of actual suffering witnessed last year. Cheer was lent to the Christmas season here by the profusion of ev ciirreen.seen on every hand. No pret tier holly has evfer been seen in the cc.mty. than that displayed this year, ar ! the balsam and cedar used in ('h crating was never greener nor seemed to be so symbolic of the season. Brevard proper, with its Christmas decorations and streel lighting ef fects wis more cheerful, and aided materiaflj; in the promulgation of the spirit of] good cheer.

Very few cases of over-bolaterous ness were- seen during the holiday festivities.
